Chapter 74(1/2)

Smiling, Yi Shuyuan suddenly noticed something strange, then he frowned and thought for a moment, and he understood it instantly.

"Fuck" blurted out in a low voice.

Yi Shuyuan thought that he had not practiced for a long time, after all, the genius had just dawned today.

As a result, what he was thinking about was already clear at this moment. A long time had passed since he sat in this library, and now it was already several days later at night from that day.

"No wonder it is said that there is no time in the mountains..."

But then I thought about it, and it turned out that I was right to go back to the library. I had been completely undisturbed for so many days.

At this moment, Yi Shuyuan was at ease, not obsessed with the victory or defeat in Yuezhou City, and was not even in a hurry to read that bamboo slip.

Instead, he dug out the piece of mountain view nephrite and the carving knife from the corner of the bookcase. Now he can finally carve words.

But Yi Shuyuan did not directly carve words in the library. Instead, he took the bamboo slips and some things, packed them together in a cloth bag, then opened the door and walked out.

------------------

Outside Tongxin Building, the shopkeepers were sitting on the bench at the door to rest.

It was still early in the day, and there were not many foreign merchants recently, and many locals also went to Yuezhou City to join in the fun, so the business of Tongxinlou during this period was not as good as in the past.

However, when the store clerk saw Yi Shuyuan walking down the street, he immediately became energetic, stood up, walked out and greeted Yi Shuyuan.

"Mr. Yi, you didn't go to Yuezhou City? But what do you want to eat?"

"I've been there before, but I couldn't see any paintings and the city was too crowded, so I came back."

The shopkeeper who was checking the accounts heard the conversation outside and greeted Yi Shuyuan with a smile when he entered.

"Mr. Yi came so early. What can I have something to eat?"

Yi Shuyuan glanced at the menu cards hanging above the counter and said with a smile.

"Take one of each of the eight delicacies, and buy two pots of Tongxinlou's own brew. After you finish cooking, help me pack it into boxes. I want to take it away."

The shopkeeper nodded and ordered the store clerk to go to the kitchen to prepare immediately, and then looked at Yi Shuyuan.

"Mr. Yi, please sit down and drink some tea first. There is no one in the building now. Can you sit for a while or go back to the county office and I will send someone to take it to you later?"

"I'll just sit here for a while."

Yi Shuyuan looked at the lobby and sat down directly in front of an empty table. Then he took out the mountain scene nephrite and carving knife from the cloth bag and looked at the jade.

This piece of nephrite has already cut out a flat area on the head, and the beauty of the tail is also natural, and it looks very beautiful without any further carving.

I didn't think about what to engrave before. After all, Yi Shuyuan never planned to engrave his real name on it, but now he figured it out.

There is no such thing as arrogance or humility, just think of it and carve it out.

Yi Shuyuan didn't hesitate at all, and he didn't need to write or draw a pattern on the jade surface first. He dropped the carving knife and started carving.

Clusters of scraps fell down as Yi Shuyuan's carving knife stroked, and the scratches also went from shallow to deep.

"call......"

Yi Shuyuan blew lightly, and the powder on his fingertips and jade surface floated out of the room with this breath of wind, and the prototype of the words on the front of the seal gradually appeared.

A waiter came over with hot tea, opened the cup next to Yi Shuyuan, and poured him the newly brewed tea.

"Mr. Yi, you have tea."

"Well, thank you."

Yi Shuyuan responded, still focusing on the matter in front of him, and the waiter looked at him curiously.

The traces of the calligraphy are still not obvious at this time, and the seal-engraved characters are reversed, so the waiter cannot see what the characters are.

"Where is Mr. Yi's seal?"

"yes."

"You have such a steady hand!"

Yi Shuyuan glanced at the waiter and continued carving, saying.

"Jade is good and cannot be damaged, so it naturally needs to be more stable."

The waiter nodded, put down the teapot, and went to work on his own. The shopkeeper over there, Kan Yi Shuyuan, stopped disturbing him while he was carving the seal, and went to work on his abacus to settle the accounts.

Yi Shuyuan's hand was not only steady, but also strong. Every time the carving knife scratched the nephrite, the marks were very deep.

Coupled with the clear grasp of the angle and position, Yi Shuyuan carved the seal very quickly, and wisps of mana were integrated into the seal along the carving knife.

The so-called seal represents oneself to a certain extent, so although this seal is not a refining magic weapon, it still has an extraordinary connection with Yi Shuyuan.

Therefore, during the process of seal carving, Yi Shuyuan's mind developed a special bond with the seal.

About half an hour later, the fragrance of the vegetables in the kitchen became more and more intense.

When the waiter came out from behind the curtain in the kitchen carrying a food box, Yi Shuyuan also put away his carving knife.

"Mr. Yi, the food is ready!"

The shopkeeper shouted from the counter, and Yi Shuyuan gently swept away the particles of powder on his clothes and table and stood up.

Others thought that Yi Shuyuan was just temporarily interrupting the seal carving, but in fact, in just such a moment, the seal carving had been completed.

Seeing Yi Shuyuan coming over, the shopkeeper opened the food box and put two porcelain pots of wine in with a smile.

"Mr. Yi, try not to tip over when you take it away. Be careful of the juice spilling out."

"Well, how much is it?"

The shopkeeper's smile was even brighter.

"A total of four hundred and twenty cents."

It was a bit expensive, but Yi Shuyuan thought it was worth it. He had already received two rounds of salary and could afford it, so he happily took off his wallet and took a small ingot of silver and put it on the counter.

The shopkeeper said "wait a minute" and weighed the silver, and gave Yi Shuyuan a dozen more coins as five-tong treasures.

"Mr. Yi, walk slowly!"

Yi Shuyuan took the money, picked up the food box, said "Thank you", then walked out of the door very easily and walked out of the city.

Near the city gate, the previous wanted notices related to Jia Yuntong's case have been replaced by other notices, telling people in Yuanjiang County not to go to Yuezhou City.

However, this kind of thing actually has little to do with ordinary people. After all, it is the busy farming season. Except for those who have ways to make money, ordinary people are busy with things in the fields.

Yi Shuyuan glanced at it and went straight out of the city. There was already a bunch of candied haws in the food box along the way.

On the way back to Xihe Village, the forest land we saw was already lush and lush.

Because of the previous case and the subsequent martial arts competition, Yi Shuyuan has not been back for a long time, and now it is the season of growing seeds.

It's just that the weather was relatively cold from last winter to the beginning of the year. Due to the weather, this year's spring plowing and sowing were a bit late.

The fields along the way have already been plowed and fertilized, and even some paddy fields have grown many lush green seedlings closely together.

The seedlings are almost grown, and soon the fields will be busy planting rice.

Now Yi Shuyuan has not only entered into spiritual practice, but his martial arts skills are also good. Even carrying a heavy food box is easy.

Sometimes I move forward slowly without being in a hurry, sometimes I move my body and walk quickly, and sometimes I just blend into the breeze and blow into the distance.

When the mind is at ease, the law is natural, and when a person is in the world of mortals, he enters the realm of immortality.

Although he was not in a hurry, if he didn't hold it back deliberately, Yi Shuyuan's speed was still astonishing, and he reached Xihe Village from the county seat in just over a quarter of an hour.

Even many people in the village did not notice Yi Shuyuan's arrival until he slowed down some distance outside the Yi family's courtyard.

When approaching the courtyard of the Yi family, the little grandnephew who was playing outside spotted Yi Shuyuan first, shouted "Uncle" from a distance, and then ran home.

"Grandpa uncle is back, grandpa uncle is back!"

The first person to greet him at the door of the hospital was his sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhao. She had a bright smile on her face and walked out of the hospital holding her grandson's hand.

"Oh, uncle, you are back. I heard that the county government is very busy these days. Are you tired?"

The money given by Ah Fei last time made Zhao happy for a long time. Now that she saw Yi Shuyuan again, she became even more enthusiastic.

But now Yi Shuyuan's mentality is different. Regardless of whether Zhao is sincere or pretentious, he can't be called disgusted, or he can't really talk about his inner turmoil.

"Brother!" "Uncle!"

Yi Baokang and his niece-in-law Li came out to greet him one after another, one excited and the other shy.

Yi Shuyuan entered the courtyard carrying the food box. The table in the main room was still the one with wooden sticks tied to it after it collapsed last time, but it was obviously strong, so Yi Shuyuan put the food box on it.

Now that the weather is not cold, the main room is always more spacious than the kitchen, but Yi Shuyuan looked around and didn't find Yi Yongan.

"Where's Yong An?"

"Dad is chatting with people who are using nets by the river."

Yi Shuyuan looked at his grandnephew, smiled and put his hand into the food box, and then quickly pulled it out. In the child's eyes, a string of red things appeared like a magic trick.

"Candied haws!"

"Oh, why is there an extra bunch of these? Adults don't like to eat them. Who are they giving them to?"

"Uncle, uncle, give it to me, give it to me -"
